* In ''Manga/FairyTail'', Levy's early appearances actually illustrate her having decently sized breasts before she was established to be suffering from ACupAngst. Gray is also seen [[SmokingIsCool smoking]] in the manga in a few of his early appearances, only for this habit to disappear and never be mentioned again.

** While ''Gundam'' was the start of the "Real Robot" genre, there were a number of SuperRobot elements still attached to the anime, among them the [[EpicFlail Gundam Hammer]], the MechaExpansionPack G-Armor, and a lot of quirky enemy machines used in a MonsterOfTheWeek format, like the Gyan and Zakurello. In general, the design aesthetic of the Principality of Zeon made them look a lot like alien invaders (just look at their [[https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/DFA-03_Dopp jet fighters]], [[https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/HT-01B_Magella_Attack tanks]] and [[https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/Musai-class space cruisers]]). Some of this was at the behest of [[MerchandiseDriven the toy companies]], some due to the need to make new fights each episode on a tight budget, and in [[CompilationMovie the movie trilogy]] Tomino dumped many of the goofier elements in favor of more realistic ones, such as replacing the G-Armor with the Core Booster and cutting out many of the mobile armors.

** The series is notable for being one of the precious few entries in the franchise where the protagonist doesn't receive a MidSeasonUpgrade. ''Anime/MobileSuitGundam0080WarInThePocket'' even pulls a LampshadeHanging on this by revealing that the Federation ''was'' making a brand-new Gundam for Amuro, only for it to get wrecked beyond repair before they could send it to White Base.

** The anime adaptations of parts 1 and 2 would often cut several scenes that were in the manga, whereas the adaptations of later parts would add scenes far more often than they'd remove them.

** The first season of the anime adaptations of adaptation, comprising parts 1 and 2 2, would often cut several scenes that were in the manga, whereas the adaptations of later parts would add scenes far more often than they'd remove them.them, and had different composers for each part's score with their own distinct styles (Hayato Matsuo for Part 1, Creator/TakuIwasaki for Part 2) while Part 3 onwards would all be scored by Yugo Kanno in a more comparatively uniform style.
** The English dub of the first season also employed [[FakeNationality faux accents]] for many of the characters, which were dropped from the (much later) dubs of Part 3 onward including for characters that had appeared in the first two parts.

these aren't "Early Installment Weirdness", these are explicit new plot developments that change what we knew previously.


** The early episodes also featured Ichigo wielding a much plainer, if still massive blade, than Zangetsu with an actual sheath as opposed to bandage wrappings. He never uses the original blade again after the first arc.
*** Justified, in that his first sword was simply a basic, unreleased Zanpakuto. He didn't get his Zangetsu blade until after training with Urahara.



** Quincy are stated early on to be a clan of humans with higher levels of spirit energy than regular humans. Urahara's reishi conversion gate is even necessary because Ichigo's friends, including Uryu who is a Quincy, are empowered humans and would still have their spirit chains connected to them. During the final arc we find that the supposedly mostly wiped out Quincy are [[NotQuiteDead still alive]] and quite a few of them are anything but human.
